Answer 2

Contrary to popular misconception, bagpipes are not limited to Scotland - forms of bagpipes are found in many global cultures.
The most common form of bagpipes found today are what are known as the Great Highland Bagpipes (or GHB). These have three drones (the drones are what make the low, sustained pitches which sound constantly and continuously), comprised of two tenor drones and a bass drone, and a double-reed chanter with a 9-note scale in the mode of A mixolydian (the notes of the chanter scale are G-A-B-C#-D-E-F#-G-A). These is what most North American and Scottish/UK pipe bands play, and what most are familiar with.
In addition to the GHB, other types of bagpipes can be found in the British Isles, such as the Ceilidh (pronounced kay-lee), border, and uilleann pipes. These are all much smaller than the GHBs, and play much more quietly. The tuning of their drones and chanters can vary from that of the GHB as well.
Popular in the Brettany region of France is the Breton binioù, a fairly close relative of the GHB. Bands of these pipes are known as bagad, and there are more than 80 throughout Brettany, with at least one in each major city of the region.
Another type, known as the gaita, can refer to any of a number of types of bagpipes throughout Iberia. One such example is the Galician gaita. It is comprised of a chanter (called the punteiro), a bass drone (roncón), and up to two more drones, playing higher than the roncón.
In addition to these types of bagpipes, there are also examples found in the Folk Music of Germany with the dudelsack, in Sweden with the säckpipa, in the countries of the Baltic, Eastern, and Southeastern regions of Europe known as the duda or gajda, in Iran with the ney anban, and in Northern Africa with the mizwad and zokra.
